Loop Start or Error: "invalid vendor id"

---

Hello Professionals (0:
Sorry for my bad English, German was better (o;

My HTC S740 / Rose starts suddenly no more.
It starts always new after the new "smart mobility" screen
= Loop

Do you have a solution without having to send to HTC?

BTW: When I try to flash I get the error message:
"invalid vendor id"
although it is actually an original HTC device is.

Thank you for your help (o:

What ROM are you trying to flash? The ROM is probably for some other branded S740.
To flash this ROM anyway you can use QMAT to generate goldcard and flash it (extracted ROSEIMG.nbh) from card...

interessting! can you post some link or how-to ?! i realy want to try it

Hello.
I have the same problem.
I have S740 with wrong downloading soft.
When I try to load new ROM into my S740 after 1% downloading the Smartphone ROM Upadate Utlility 3.27.4.3 show ERROR [294]: INVALID VENDER ID.

I don't know what will be before.
How can I solve this problem?

I will be very very grateful.

Rgds.

Read the stickies. You need HardSPL.

Could you tell me step by step what I should do?

1. Activesync doesn't see phone.
2. When I turn on the phone (using data cable) is only black screen SMART MOBILITY and restart and restart ect ect.
3. I downloaded RUU_Rose_Orange_UK_1.17.61.2_Radio_sign_12.29.30.0 9_0.29.30.22_Ship and I copied RUU_signed.nbh into the microSD card.
4. I changed the name from RUU_signed.nbh to RoseIMG.nbh
5. I turned on the phone one more time, and put button VOL DOWN
6. Then we can see info LOADING, next CHECKING and next info 0028002 NOT ALLOWED
7. Then I can see screen red, green, blue and below is white part with info: USB
8. On this screen is also:
ROSE100
SPL-1.54.0000
MicroP-Rose (LED) v10
MicroP-Rose (KEY) v5
PCBID 0x80
RID 0x0
9. Activesync still doesn't see phone.
10. When I try to use ROMUpadateUtility after 1% I see ERROR [294]: INVALID VENDER ID.
11. I used older and new versions of ROMUpdateUtility and always is the same problem.

So could you tell me step by step what can I do?
Thank you for help!!!

Now I know more.
I tried to connect via Activesync and download new HardSPL, but there was no connection between S740 and Activesync. I used 2 comps, 2 different data cables and without any progress.
Seems that phone is without ROM now.
Connecting without microSD card is good. I turn on the phone, push VOL DOWN and I see boot menu with the SERIAL info. When I put data cable I can see USB.
So all seems to be correct.

But how to download HardSPL without Activesync?
I have no connection between phone and Acitesync so I can not download HardSPL. I use Rose-S740-HardSPL-Kit-by-jocky2001, hope that it is correct SPL.
